Now that the warmer
weather is here, more and
more people of all ages are
turning to bicycles as their
means of transportation.
In view of the energy crisis
and ecological problems,
the use of bicycles has
increased greatly and
should be encouraged to do
so. It is therefore of great
importance that both
cyclists and motorists
learn and practice the
rules of the road.
A bicycle can provide
good health, recreation,
and transportation for
those who use it correctly.
In 1973 the Bicycle In-by
Shari Miller
stitute of America
reported the sale of 15.3
million bicycles. They are
being ridden by
grade-school youngsters,
teenagers, senior citizens,
and those in between.
All bicyclists must
develop good riding
habits; motorists must
also do their share by
recognizing that a bicycle
is a Vehicle .too and must
be respected as one. In
Nassau County alone,
there have been 299 motor
vehicle- bicycle accidents
so far this year; five
fatalities have resulted.
